Limiting Number of Contacts in Phonebook for Vehicle

We often get asked how to limit the number of contacts that your phone sends to your car's phonebook. The recommendation is to keep your Phone Settings on Automatic Download so any changes to your phone's phonebook are automatically changed within your car's. However for some people they have a lot of work and nonnecessary numbers listed in their phone's phonebook and sometimes just want some select numbers to be available to call from their vehicle.

Sync System: Click on the Phone Menu button

Scroll to Phone Settings - Click "Ok"

Scroll to Auto Download - Click "Ok"

Scroll to Turn Off - Click "Ok"

Scroll to Manage Phonebook - Click "Ok"

Scroll to Delete Contact - Click "Ok"

This will prompt you to scroll through your contacts when you find the name you would like deleted click "Ok".

Voice Commands for Text Message

Press Sync Button

"Phone"

"Read Message"

The Sync system will read aloud the text message.

The Voice Command feature of Text Message is to help the driver stay focused on the road and not worry about the text message that came in. Ford suggests that if the driver needs to respond to the message that they call the person and talk using the Sync Handsfree option.

The driver can also send one of several preset messages in response.Press the Sync button"Reply to Text Message"

Some options of the pre-designed messages are:

"I'll Call You back in a few minutes""I'm On My Way""OK""Thanks""I'm running a few minutes late""Yes""No""Why""Stuck in Traffic""Call me Later""I Love You"

With the My Ford Touch System, the driver can select the message to be sent via voice command. When the vehicle is in park the driver can edit the message via the keypad and send a more personalized message.

!!Remember Texting While Driving is Distracting!!

The voice command option for text messaging is made available to keep the driver's eyes on the road. Soerens Ford encourages drivers to stay safe and return text messages by phone calls or when they have arrived at their destination.
